The Undead Lords of Undyrwyrd

The Undead Lords of Undyrwyrd, known as the Tomb Kings, are the undying rulers of northern Korinth, an ancient Human kingdom that formed a great and powerful empire some two thousand five hundred years before the birth of Sicarus. Out of all the unliving creatures that would claim dominion and royalty over the dead, only the Tomb Kings could truly claim such masterful and undisputed sovereignty. For they had once ruled a mighty and far-flung empire during a time when the rest of the races were little more than savage barbarians.

History
Long ago, during an ancient and forgotten age, Nahakara stood as a shining beacon of civilisation and human achievement; a golden age when its cities shone with a majestic splendor, its buildings crafted from magnificent marble and limestone, its armies capable of conquering entire kingdoms. In this long-lost age, Nahakara's mighty rulers reigned as living gods amongst men. But this great realm was destroyed millennia ago through acts of great treachery and powerful sorcery. The living perished long ago in a single, mournful night, and in their absence, the dead stirred from their graves and claimed the land anew.

Even as their ancient civilisation now lies buried beneath the ground, its once verdant plains turned to searing wasteland and their mighty and glorious empire fractured and in ruin, the Tomb Kings have once more awoken from their deep sleep. Rising from their decrepit sarcophagi, the mummified rulers of Nahakara awoke with eyes of burning balefire, their thirst for power, conquest and vengeance just as strong in death as in life.

They have returned to reclaim that which is rightfully theirs, their legions uncountable, rising up from their graves brandishing weapons of polished bronze and priceless gold. Ancient, emotionless and spiteful to all those that have slighted them, woe betide those foolish enough to stand before their silent onslaught.
